Two sessions: Ideas from tech entrepreneurs

Lei Jun, CEO and founder of Xiaomi Corp and a deputy to the 13th National People's Congress

This year, Lei's suggestions covered promoting the development of China's smart manufacturing sector, helping the elderly better join digital life via smart technology, and speeding up the digitalization construction of the county-level healthcare system.

In terms of smart manufacturing, Lei said the government should create a stable, predictable macro policy environment, and promote cooperative work among enterprises, universities and research institutes. A service platform for smart manufacturing should continue to be cultivated to achieve bigger breakthroughs in industrial software and the smart manufacturing system.

In order to solve the problem of the "digital divide" among seniors, Lei said senior digital service should be brought into the national informatization infrastructure construction as soon as possible, and promote integrated development of emerging business modes and smart technologies applied to senior scenarios.
